Photographer's Note

The castle of Palamidi lies on a high hill (216m. a.s.l.) to the east of Acronauplia which was first fortified by the Venetians during the second Venetian occupation of the area (1686-1715). It is a typical baroque fortress, based on the plans of the engineers Giaxich and Lasalle. In 1715 it was captured by the Turks and remained under their control until 1822, when it was liberated by the Greeks.

Excellent composition and perspective in this great shot from Palamidi. One or two small problems in the photo, though. Some areas on the walls are slightly overexposes, and second I would prefer a little bit "warmer" colours, but that's just my personal taste. Besides that an excellent job. Congratulations!
